Thank you for the question. I think it's a terrific question, because it gets to the root of where the science culture is in this country and where it is going to come from, in terms of enthusiasm to support all of the things the three of us have talked about.
In the context of NEPTUNE Canada, I mentioned briefly in passing the fact that public education and outreach is a key component of what we're committed to. Just to give you one example, we've recently been recipients of a grant from CANARIE that will allow us to build the new generation of web-based platforms, Web 2.0, with the explicit intention of reaching the K-to-12, post-secondary, and general public audiences. This will essentially bring a new “world” to the world, and expose all of us to what's happening under the oceans, for all of the reasons we are increasingly aware of as key.
So thank you for the question, because I don't want to leave you with the impression that what we are developing here is something that is just for a select group of scientists. It isn't.
